Checking for codes bad for computer?
Checking for codes bad for computer?
After engine light went on (and then off after about five starts) I'm getting a code when I check for codes with on off key procedure. P-1757. Dealer says that no codes come up with their scan tool and that cycling the ignition like that may have damaged the computer. That's news to me. Anyone heard of this?
Thanks...Rick

No, holding the trip reset while turning the key will show you the instrument cluster codes. These are NOT the same as the OBD-II powertrain codes. Powertrain codes are displayed by cycling the ignition key three times.
